Location

The Nare is located in a quiet and secluded bay on the south coast of Cornwall, in South West England

The Nare is surely one of the most beautifully situated hotels in the British isles. Set on the Roseland Peninsula, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the hotel benefits from spectacular sea views and the natural beauty of the rural landscape.

When The Nare says sea view, it doesn’t mean stand on tiptoes and peer past this multistorey sea view. It means bask on the panoramic, uninterrupted, meditative blue sea view.

Located south of Truro and just over four hours from London, The Nare is a perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of life and discover the stunning natural beauty, culture, and historic sights on offer in Cornwall.

A perfect location

The sparkling sea of Carne Bay Beach, south Cornwall.

Carne Beach and Gerrans Bay

The Nare hotel is located in a quiet and secluded position overlooking Carne beach. Rugged headlands stretch into the sea on both sides, providing dramatic and panoramic sea views across Gerrans Bay. The Nare is also surrounded by unspoilt rolling countryside, which offer a more peaceful stay, away from the busy resorts. Watch the video above to see for yourself.

Veryan Village

The postcard pretty village of Veryan lies a mile inland from The Nare. Veryan has an array of quaint and quintessentially English cottages that hark back to a bygone era. The five round houses built in the early nineteenth century by vicar, Jeremiah Trist, are especially pretty. Veryan church is also famous for reportedly containing the longest grave in England, where nineteen souls from a merchant shipwreck in 1914 are buried head to foot.

The Roseland Heritage Coast

The Roseland is one of Cornwall’s special places.

The famous South West Coastal Path also runs through the Roseland and alongside the hotel. The dramatic Fal Estuary and the picturesque harbours of Mevagissey and St Mawes are also close by.

Subtropical Microclimate

The Roseland benefits from a remarkable subtropical microclimate that supports palm trees in the hotel garden, produces daffodils at Christmas, and an early spring in Cornwall's world-famous gardens. The Nare founded Cornwall's Spring Story to recognise and celebrate the moment Cornish Magnolias flower, spring has arrived in England.
